Lumina Church: From An Assassin To A Nun

「Pure Smog」

Inside Duke Rothenmas secret lab, white smog starts to appear from the hand of a black-clothed girl and get inside a woman who's now lying on the ground n.a.k.e.d, only covered by few pieces of cloths.

The woman who's lying on the ground twitch every time the smog move inside her body, while it seems like she's in pain, the truth is, what she's feeling right now is ecstasy! Yes, it's pure ecstasy!

The smog keep moving around to every inch of her body, and every time it did so, impurities will get extract which results in the ecstasy she feels as of now.

It didn't take too long for the white smog to turn into black, and the black-clothed girl that has watched the whole process look at it with interest before she continues to summon a white smog and order it to clean the woman body.

The black-clothed girl is, of course, Villia while the woman lying on the floor is Ravelina, the wife of Galvrance who's now a zombie.

Villia stops supplying Pure Smog, once she knows every harmful substance has quit Ravelina body, start to investigate the secret lab that got left behind by the mastermind.

With some rough check, Villia has found out that the mastermind behind this case is a member of Monmonmon Cult — Monster God Monmonmon worshipper who wish to turn every human into a monster.

At first, their goal here's to turn the human they kidnap into slime, the example for those is MS-024 Gigant Slime that got defeated by adventurers this morning. Even so, one unexpected thing happened when they tried to turn Galvrance into a zombie, like what they always do to any other person who's not compatible with slime experiments.

Unlike other Zombies, Galvrance still retains his human self, and that's how it all began. That's how they add the subject of turning human into a zombie project on top of turning human into slime, and their first goal is, of course, to kidnap Galvrance, son.

Even so, they didn't find Galvrance family at his old home anymore by the time they arrived. In his rage, he commands Shadow Fishes to kidnap the Farm owner, and the new person who got that home and that's also how news of Shadow Fishes spreading to the masses.

One might ask, why didn't they just go and experiment with Galvrance again? Why do they need his son?

The answer to that is simple…Galvrance is no longer a human. They can't research his body from human respective anymore, as what they want to create is the method to turn human into a true zombie not true zombie into a human. Furthers experiment on him will yield no result, then why don't they bet on his son who got his gene?

That's also why they become so happy yesterday when they catch Galvrance wife and son. Once they have research Galvrance son body, they might catch a glimpse of the moment a human turn into a monster while retaining their minds! It might be because of something they think insignificant, it might be because of some elements they didn't count in, even so, to find out all of it…they need a sacrifice!

The sacrifices they choose is the human who lives in prison for the rest of their life, that's why they sent Galvrance team to go to the prison to take control of it.

But that's when the whole situation went wrong…

A wandering adventurer by coincidence come into this city, coincidentally go into the prison they sent Galvrance to, coincidentally know every position of the worms they breed, coincidentally have the power to destroy a soul, and she might coincidentally know their whereabouts which makes him suspect that there's a spy among them.

The mastermind feels he may be paranoid about this whole things, even so, he trusts the instinct that has helped him through a lot of tribulations till now and chooses to retreat swiftly with his trusted confidantes and his precious experiments subject to his other base to lie low for a while.

If it's someone else, they might lose their tracks already, but who's Villia?

She's someone who born with Status Viewer! There's no information she can't get if she willed it! As long as some tiny little bit hint exist, she would be able to catch to it , and that's also why Villia let out a smile and contact the Guild Master once again.

「Telepathy」

[Guild Leader, I have good news for you.]

***

"Head researcher…do we really need to abandon our old lab and research? How can those barbarians called adventurers find our base easily? If it's Galvrance, surely you know we have clear his memory pertaining to our base, how can he tell them something he doesn't even remember?"

"Then what if there's a snitch among us…?"

"We're Lord Monmonmon subject! You should remember that betraying our pack means betraying our Lord, how can we betray such a mighty figure like lord!? Head Researcher…I know you're trying to be cautious…but being paranoid is whole different things! How many times have we abandoned our research because of you! All the research that time may not be important which is why we didn't say much all this time, but not this time!"

"That brat mother is still there! Her body got perfect compatibility with slime, and it will take a little bit more time for her to turn into slime! She might turn into a slime that's stronger than any other we create before, yet you…!"

"Stop it Hala! I know you want to research more on slime, even so! You need to remember that there's also a time when Head researcher instinct comes true. How about we observe for a few days first and go back later after we know it's safe?"

In a certain room, a young man can be seen arguing with an old man who is calmly sipping his tea, ignoring this young disciple of his.

This old man — Aguna Gagan, is the one Villia labelled as the mastermind behind all these kidnappings that keep happening in Variesz city.

In front of him, is a fellow subjects of their lord Monmonmon, and also his trusted disciple — Hala Gagan who's the youngest and keep complaining, Mista Gagan his only female student and secret lover at the same time, and the last Lugu Gagan who's taking care of a boy in the neighboring rooms.

Although it's said taking care, the truth is, they're still experimenting on the boy even when they're trying to lay low. That boy right now is their precious asset, as he's the son of the Galvrance who turns into True Zombie and Ravelina whose body has high compatibility with slime.

They might not get a result while experimenting with his body yet, but he's sure…he's sure that they will discover it sooner or later! Like what his lord had taught …when two coincidence happened at the same times, then it's not a coincidence! But Fate!

But whose fate is it? Of course, it's his! Aguna Gagan fate!

He's fated to raise his rank among the cult member with the boy, and he also believes that boy will become the key to turn every human into a monster! He, Aguna Gagan, will finally prove to the world that he's still genius like before!

"Is that all you have to say Hala? Then I can only say that you're naïve."

"I still have a l-"

"Thud!"

Aguna rises from his chair holding a rod in his hands to support his hunchbacked body stand and knock Hala he's at it.

"Stop complaining…don't forget that we are a researcher. It's good to prioritize our researches, even so, a dead researcher is of no use to this world. We can't research after death, but turning ourselves into Lich to research is a completely different matter, so it didn't count, ha ha ha ha ha."

Aguna starts to laugh creepily and walk to the direction of the door. He can't wait to do this and that to that boy again. Is he going to find the answer to the problem of completely turning humanity into a monster through the boy today, tomorrow, or the day after that?

He can't wait to do that and opened the door, yet the moment he touches the door, his instinct screams to him as if saying, 'Don't open the door!!' and stop his movement.

"What's wrong head researcher?"

Mista looked weirdly at her master who suddenly stops on his track. Although she didn't understand his action, as experienced as she is, she has prepared a scalpel in her right hand to prepare if there's an enemy behind that door.

Even so, the youngest disciple Hala didn't understand any of it, use his hands to the door handle and ready to open it.

"Don't open the door!"

Aguna who finally come to his sense shout at Hala, yet he's a bit too late as the door opened and revealed there's nothing in front of them.

"Head researcher…you're too paranoid."

Hala said with irritation and went outside the door to prove that there's nothing. He looks at left and right, and even above him, yet there's no one there.

"See? There's no one here…"

But before he can say anything more, the door immediately got closed. Aguna fears that Hala may get killed already and opened the door, but all he can see is Hala smug face that's telling him 'You're too paranoid that you might have gone senile already.'

"See? There's no one here head researcher. You're too paranoid after all."

Aguna calmed and told himself that the enemy wouldn't be able to find this places, he's just paranoid. He walked outside on guard, and as expected, there's no one like what Hala said, and keep walking forward.

Mista also quickly followed Aguna while keeping his guards, and lastly followed by Hala who shook his head when he saw their action and look at them with a smile while carrying two pairs of daggers that's already dyed with blood.

Back in Duke Rothenmas room.

All of the women he tortured has beaten him with every power they can muster while smiling and crying at the same times.

Maids from the outside have come to the rooms and treat all of the women who have lost all of their strength as per Villia orders before Villia receive telepathy from the Guild Leader.

[Villia, we have caught them all and save the boy, thanks to you.]
